How to Edit PDFs Privately: Stop Uploading Your Sensitive Docs
The Hidden Risk of Online PDF Tools
We've all been there: You need to quickly merge a contract or compress a tax return, so you Google "free pdf merger". You click the first link, upload your file, download the result, and move on.
But where did your file go?
Most free online tools upload your document to a remote server for processing. While many are legitimate, you have no guarantee that your data is deleted immediately. For sensitive documents like bank statements, legal contracts, or ID copies, this is a massive security risk.
The Client-Side Revolution
At Omibox, we believe your data belongs to you. That's why we built our suite of PDF tools using WebAssembly and modern browser technologies.
What does "Client-Side" mean?
It means the "brain" of the tool runs inside your web browser (Chrome, Edge, Safari), not on our supercomputer.
- When you "upload" a file, it never leaves your computer.
- Processing happens locally, utilizing your device's CPU.
- No data transfer means it's blazing fast, even on slow connections.
